I have a cough that sometimes produces a sticky phelm. i take high blood pressure medicine, lysinopril. i have heard this can make you cough as a side effect. is this true?

Cough: Dry cough is one the most common side effects of the class of substances lisinopril is part of. Your cough is productive and that does not rule out the possible cough inducing side effect of lisinopril. Speak to your physician about your suspicion and possibly substituting or stopping lisinopril for a time limited trial.
